As a child, Renee Wilm loved fast cars.
She recalled bouncing around the back seat of her parent’s roadster “long before seat belts were mandatory.”
Eventually, Wilm traded fast cars for a legal career after earning her bachelor of business administration in finance degree from Hofstra University on Long Island and her Juris Doctor degree from St. John’s University School of Law in Queens.
Wilm joined the New York City office of the global law firm Baker Botts, eventually rising to a senior partnership level where she specialized in mergers and acquisitions and other complex matters covering securities law and corporate governance.
